Abstract

This study seeks to explore the direction of travel Gasa in 1920s through <Dongyugamheungrok>, Travel Gasa by a country intellectual. <Dongyugamheungrok> is about the inspection of Korea by the Empire of Japan, and attempts formal transformation by handling a change in Confucian intellectual’s consciousness during modernization. Characteristic of this work is that both gasa style and prose style are being used, and the mixture of these heterogeneous literary style corresponds with the consciousness of this Confucian intellectual. In other words, heterogeneous fissure is formed between the prose style, which divides the whole into chapters and gives collective meaning, and gasa style, which is open and keeps the independence of the scene. In formal aspect, <Dongyugamheungrok> has both characteristics of oral tradition and visual reading. The fact that it was printed as individual work and that prose style is mixed in long travel Gasa, shows the change of flow in the enjoyment method of travel Gasa. Also, it shows the direction of travel Gasa since twentieth century, and reflects how a Confucian intellectual of country, the traditional intellectual, craves to break through the reality in which modern values are appreciated. The author reproduces his mother country’s reality of colonization in his own interest, but consequently aspires the conservative desire which puts hierarchical interest first.
